Manny Suspended For Positive Drug Test

Thu, 07 May 2009 16:41:52 GMT

Major League Baseball has suspended Manny Ramirez for 50 games after he tested positive for a drug banned by the MLB – making him the biggest star suspended for drugs so far under baseball’s testing program.

Manny is blaming the positive test on medication given to him by a doctor.

What do you think of his suspension? Does it surprise you? Do you think he’s telling the truth, or covering up a lie? Do you think he used performance-enhancing drugs while with the Red Sox?

The Cassel-Vrabel Trade

Mon, 02 Mar 2009 19:05:55 GMT

On paper, it was a head-scratcher.

How could the New England Patriots receive only a second-round pick in exchange for an NFL starting quarterback AND a rock-solid clubhouse leading veteran linebacker?

Just like that, Matt Cassel and Mike Vrabel gone.

NY Post Cartoon

Wed, 18 Feb 2009 18:39:35 GMT

Civil rights activist Al Sharpton is calling this cartoon published in the NY Post “troubling.”

The animation from Wednesday’s post shows two police officers standing over the body of a bullet-riddled chimp. One of the officers says to the other, “They’ll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill.”

Do you think this is a racist cartoon, or just an attempt at humor? Tell us what you think.

Holiday Music

Thu, 06 Nov 2008 16:23:40 GMT

WROR and WODS have kicked off their Christmas music marathon a week early this year, and will be playing holiday songs through the end of Christmas Day.

Are you on board with this, or do you think it is way too early to be thinking about the holidays?

What if you don't even celebrate Christmas? What do you think about listening to Christmas music for two months?

When do you suggest the radio stations and malls start playing Christmas songs?
